I haven't been able to get there yet, though I want to, but I've been told by people all over the country that this is "the" terrarium/vivarium place. It's in Turner's Falls, just a bit North of Northampton.

There is also a great terrarium shop not TOO far away if people have any interest in combining that with the aquarium shop. And Northampton is lousy with good restaurants... They tend to be a bit crowded on the weekends, though.

Do you have a link to the shop? We have a few members with emersed plants/terrarium.

We had a great group of people at my house for the first meeting of the Massachusetts Aquatic Plant Society (MAPS) on Dec. 9th. Lots of good conversation, everyone had a chance to see and chat about my tanks, David Lass brought the LED light tubes he is marketing. We even had a raffle and plant swap!

Right now, we're tentatively planning for a second meeting in March, at David Lass' lovely house in Nahant. David has lovely tanks, an indoor Koi pond and waterfall, and his house overlooks the ocean. It's a really special place, not to be missed! So keep your eye out for announcements here, on APC, the Barr Report or. Our AGA FB page!

I know it is a long time away, but we are looking for a September meeting. We have not finalized the actual date. Any input from your side? Any of you know what else is in the town for family members not so keen on Aquatic Plants?

I am the current president of the New Jersey Aquatic Gardeners Club and would be glad to have a joint road trip with you guys to Aqua View Design in Northampton, MA http://www.aquaviewdesign.com/index.html I have discussed this with some of the members of NJAGC and they would be up for it on a Saturday next year sometime.

a road trip to Aqua View would be great! Looks like a great place to check out, and only about 15 minutes from one of my favorite restaurants too! Thanks for the heads up!
